Confirmation of Celtic v Buckie Thistle TV coverage and kick-off time – with Aberdeen also chosen for Scottish Cup broadcast

Buckie Thistle’s Scottish Cup fourth round tie with Celtic will be staged on Sunday January 21 with kick-off at 4pm.

As expected the Parkhead clash will be televised live by Viaplay as the Breedon Highland League Jags look to stun the Premiership champions and cup holders.

It’s likely the revenue Buckie generate from this glamour tie will run into six figures due to the broadcast fee and receiving half of the gate receipts.
